Just five years ago, prompt engineering, machine learning, automation, artificial intelligence (AI), and emotional intelligence were not terms we heard on a daily basis. But with rapid digital and technological advancements transforming industries and introducing new business models, workplaces are being reshaped with roles that didn't even exist a few years ago. By 2030, you could be working in a job that's yet to exist. The fast-paced evolution of work presents a unique challenge: preparing for future roles that are difficult to predict. But don't worry. Jobs may change, but reskilling can prepare you for what's next.
The World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report 2023 mentioned that machines currently handle 34% of business tasks, a figure expected to rise to 42% by 2027. This shows the growing need for individuals to understand and collaborate with automation. The report also mentioned that some traditional roles like bank tellers and cashiers are projected to decline. The report forecasts that 50% of all employees will need reskilling by 2025, an essential step in staying relevant in an evolving job market.
"The world is changing drastically every five years. What you learn today is going to be obsolete tomorrow. Hence, cultivating the ability to learn, unlearn and relearn is most critical," said Swati Ganeti, Director of Undergraduate Programme, Masters' Union.
